Configuration Parameter Nodes

The Configuration Policy node in the DSM Explorer tree contains configuration parameter subnodes. Because the Configuration Policy node is dynamic, the Default Computer Policy, DSM node displays both common and plug-in specific nodes depending on what DSM-based applications or component plug-ins are installed.

The following configuration parameter subnodes, or folders, contain configuration policies:

• Administration Console
• Agent
• Asset Maintenance System (AMS)
• Common Components
• Data Transport Service (DTS)*
• Manager
• Notification
• Remote Control*
• Scalability Server
• Service Desk Integration*
• Software Delivery*

  * Indicates component-specific configuration policies.

Each corresponding pane contains the following fields:
